>Who do you see as your competition? AWS's CloudWatch / Centralized Logging? Splunk? GCP's Logging? Logstash? Graylog? More like Athena/Presto/SnowFlake. Simply put, anyone who is DB like systems for querying structured logs. >What kind of query language are you thinking? I imagine SQL-like, as that's Clickhouse's native language. Pretty much CH like SQL with some syntactic sugar for JSON. https://docs.dassana.cloud/docs/query/sample-queries#filter-array-any https://docs.dassana.cloud/docs/query/sample-queries#filter-... >Business-wise, how are you gonna integrate with the cloud providers, AWS / GCP / Azure? Most people who use those services just use the built-ins. Cheaper, faster and easier. Let me openly challenge anyone- take a nested JSON, send it to logging service and query it. And now do the same with Dassana. You will find night and day difference. I agree with most folks start with in-built services but they soon grow out of it. Here is an example- if you are using GCP, try getting count of failed HTTP requests group by host or ip. Turns out, there is no support for aggregate queries and you will have to create bunch of complicated metric filters to achieve it. >More than Grafana, I think you need something like Metabase integrated OOTB. That might be a killer feature. That's an awesome suggestion, we are going to look into it >IMHO, FTS is a must-have from day 1. Most software that folks run produce non-structured logs OOTB (sad, I know), so folks won't even be able to try your service without changing their software. And getting a lot of software, even popular ones like Python/Flask, Ruby/Rails, Java/Spring, to produce structured logs is not a simple task. Agree with your sentiment,we for now are focusing on use cases where you have structured logs. SecOps teams have such use cases. These teams mostly deal with data like CloutTrail, VpcFlows, ALB logs etc.
